The leaders of South Korea, Japan, and the United States released a joint statement on Sunday, commemorating the anniversary of their summit at Camp David.
They reaffirmed their commitment to addressing regional challenges together, according to South Korea's presidential office. The statement emphasised that the principles of trilateral cooperation established during last year's summit continue to guide their collaborative efforts.
"We remain committed to consulting on regional challenges, provocations, and threats that impact our shared interests and security," the statement read.
On August 18, US President Joe Biden, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, and South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol met and agreed to strengthen military and economic cooperation, taking a unified stance against China's increasing influence and the security threats posed by North Korea.
South Korean media reported that the leaders are expected to meet again this year, though the timing remains uncertain, particularly given that Kishida has announced his intention to step down.
